Exajoule/second
An exajoule per second (EJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one exajoule of energy every second.
History/Origin
The exajoule (EJ) is a metric unit of energy introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) to measure large quantities of energy. The concept of power units like EJ/s emerged with the development of large-scale energy measurement, particularly in fields such as astrophysics and energy production, to quantify extremely high power levels.
Current Use
EJ/s is used primarily in theoretical and large-scale energy discussions, such as in astrophysics, planetary science, and global energy consumption analysis, where extremely high power levels are involved.
Kilojoule/hour
A kilojoule per hour (kJ/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy in kilojoules transferred or converted per hour.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per hour has been used as a measure of power in contexts where energy transfer rates are expressed over time, particularly in engineering and scientific applications, though it is less common than standard SI units like watts.
Current Use
kJ/h is used in specific fields such as thermodynamics and energy management to quantify energy transfer rates, especially in systems where energy is measured in kilojoules and the rate is expressed per hour, though it is often converted to watts for standardization.
